It’s funny how people have no problem using AI, trained with protected content, but refuse to offer their material for training 🤣
Additionally, at this rate, only idiots will share their view. This is going to increase the bias of AIs…
Riiiiiight…
If it is so promising, why haven’t they started more projects since 2023? 😃
I’m in the energy business and work with Chinese partenaires. This project was an investigation. The construction industry has been in overdrive for the last 30y.
When it Will slow down, all these machines, people, etc will need something to do. This was the whole purpose.
Since you start insulting me, I won’t exchange further 😘
That’s a pilot project…
And the construction industry is already very established… Very little cost reduction potential.
But you’ll see 😃
PS: comparing such a technology to a nuclear plant shows how little you understand that technology and business.
Right… Construction is such a new industry. A lot of cost reduction potential. Plus, concrete is so clean 🤣
They have tried at least for the last 7 years. The price of batteries has plummeted since:
Let me know, when they go in production 😃
Already debunked 1000 times. Much more complex and expensive.
Soooo… Of 1B€ is nothing, will the new owner pay it back?
Every European country is rolling back social progresses from the last 60y. Reducing support to existing companies.
So, while 1B€ is “nothing”, it should not happen.
Northvolt receive 1B€ from the European investment Bank (eib). Part of it was for the German plant, but still.
And all the public funding received… Disgusting.


Until early this year, this would have been unthinkable for me.
Today, I agree with that statement.


Coca-Cola can go suck an egg.


Having other countries chip in to get content is probably not the end of the world…


For all these examples, they are either pretty much on par with other countries (or slightly ahead), using dumping to kill the competition (PV) or focusing their resources on strategic tech -batteries- (like any authorian regime ever did).
I’m not saying is not saying they are not innovative or a technologic power.
But saying they have brought new tech (that Europeans or Americans had discarded) is not really correct.


Yes, that’s true. And they partner with some and Italian content producers.
But they should have entered the full European space progressively, as the EU grew.
This would have been seen as a sign of value and integration. Now, it looks more like 2 economies using it to model the EU thinking as external threats use media to gain more control.


It was intended as a unification tool between the 2 largest economies of the EU at a time when the EU was centered on these 2 countries.
Like every company, Arte should have focused on its mission to contribute to the European integration and expanded.
I’m not really complaining. Just saying that doing it now is opening the door for others (Slovakia, Hungary) to use it as a propaganda tool.
Not doing something until you have to (the current geopolitical turmoil) is usually too late…


Such as?
They have managed to take over many industries mostly though their focused resources allocation, extremely large internal market and some dumping.
But what technology have they developed, that others failed?


Instead of making everything about “the EU”, they should progressively increase the range. Include Spanish, Italian and Dutch already. Then Portuguese and Polish, etc.
But they should have done it as the EU enlarged. Now, it seems forced…


That’s partially a cognitive biais. You mostly remember the ones that survived and forget about the plethora that didn’t.
For instance: China, like many countries, also has lots of h2 trials that failed.
Time will tell. But saying that costs will be equivalent to that of conventional wind turbine is putting a lot of pressure on"will", which is doing all the heavy lifting…
Or outside of a vacuum…
